What is recorded here
Kilvoruan is a scheduled graveyard in Carravindoon, County Antrim, where the boundary between human memory and myth collapses. The stones may mark ordinary deaths or something the region stopped naming. People still point to the place when they want to admit that loss can become a living presence.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as GRAVEYARD: KILVORUAN. Recorded period: UNCERTAIN. Recorded protection: Scheduled. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
